My mistake, didn't notice it didn't say to retweet this time. What exactly are "impressions" then? Is that when you "like" something on Facebook?

Impressions are views, comments, likes, downloads, shares. Ect. It's pretty much every time someone scrolls down the page and sees the post or interacts with it. I know this because I own a fan page on Facebook  Also, nobody can see how many impressions there are except for the page owner(s).

Glad I wasn't the only one going "WTF is a facebook impression ?" :P  but yeah it looks like they felt the 1,000 retweet target was too easy and they are sticking with the 750,000 facebook impressions ...... whatever the hell a facebook impression is.

My guess is that the relay is number 304942  or those are it's co-ordinates, nothing fancy.

Impression=Page view.

So say you, me, and DuPuis(see what I did there?) all shared the new pic on our pages.

If 5 people viewed each of our pages, they'd see the pic. That counts for 15 impressions.

Get it now? That's why they want people to share it. The more sharing, the more impressions.

THE NUMBERS, SHEPARD....WHAT DO THEY MEAN

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT ANY NUMBERS !!!

Edit : Darn, I hope instead trapping  Reapers in Sol System, Shepard send them to Batarian homeworld first, because....well they're Batarians :ph34r:

I am afraid some of us try our damnedest to steer clear of all this social networking crap on the net :P so all this "impression" stuff is a mystery.   Hell the only reason I use twitter is so I can stalk Christina Norman and Jesse Houston on it in the hope they will let some juicy Mass Effect 3 goodness slip.

Couldn't we just view the page a whole bunch ourselves and rack up impressions?

Probably; you could use proxies.

But back to theories, trapping the reapers to sol would ruin it for me, they're machines, they calculate every move they make, know every possible outcome that they can possible know of, so there's no way they'd go as 1 group at same time to sol just to be trapped.
Even if don't know that someone posesses the ability to disable mass relay, they know it's technically possible and if that happens it ruins everything big time.

If it were organic race I'd buy it, but machine, hell no, machines don't think like organics, they got no emotions of any kind, they just have logic and math; that's why machines never lose to humans in chess, they can calculate every possible outcome of the game at any given time, thus, never lose.

Buuuut then again are reapers 100% machines, if they are, what is their reason to exist, machines don't have emotions so there's nothing to live for, or is there?
Do we all live because we got emotions, if we think rationally do we have reason to live?
Does anything matter? Why do we reproduce, there has to be some goal and it has to have meaning
When we die, do we keep existing in any way? if not, rationally its waste of, everything, we could just stop existing and its not like you feel anything; happiness is probably what we're all after, which means boredom, sadness and that kind of stuff is what we don't want but if we're dead there's neither and everything's fine(not really, nothing exists anymore).

I Guess I went offtopic but my point is organic life has pursue of happiness as far as our understanding goes, as goal but synthetics have none, they are just tools to use, if they could think on their own, they would just do nothing, or shut themselves down, if we assume they have nothing else to do either.

Ok, I can't even remember what my original point was, something like "machines are not "stupid" they can't be trapped into sol, but what if they are not 100% machine"
But it seems that I let my brain fart some emotional bits into EA servers, sorry that i'm not machine.:P
:?

I did a lil calculating, but I am not sure if someone has already done this, but its about 3 days in seconds. And in minutes, its 6 months. So either were getting the DLC in 6 months, so mid-late summer, or we have 3 days till the announcement or new screenie? No clue. Clever girl bioware, clever girl.

I agree there'd be no reason for the entire Reaper fleet to all go to Sol if they were already in the galaxy, but what if their method of returning to the galaxy requires passing through Sol?  Like in ME1 Sovereign was trying to activate the Citadel so the Reapers could jump there from dark space; what if there's something in Sol that they can use to do the same thing?  So the Reapers reactivate this thing and start pouring into the system from dark space, and Shepard somehow disables/destroys the Charon relay so they're trapped there and can't get to the rest of the galaxy.

Then we sir would have a Halo 3, 'Arc' case on our hands. I think if this is the story, its way to predictable. Probably a simple case of instead of attacking citadel, the political centre of the world they attack humans cus theyre 'interested' in us. If not, then theyre attacking Earth just as much as everywhere else. Although not likely.

I don't know if the impressions/views are registering as one per person or just how many visits, but if it is just the amount of visits, I think I made a good dent in the last hour of opening it and closing it. Must have done it at least 400 - 450 times.

Or that's a code of some sort that you'll have to memorize. Hint. Hint?

Do it 700,000 more times and we'll be good.

This has to have been said already but couldn't it be a count down till the relay opens?

30 (days/hours) 49 (hours/mins) 42 (min/sec)

Guys I have a theory what if it isn't a countdown, distance, or amount of reapers. It how old the relay or reapers are. It was 304942 years ago they were activated

The number can't be a countdown to anything IRL because Bioware was only going to release the screen if it got 1 million impressions or w/e. Also, that'd be dumb.

It wouldn't make sense, seeing as though it was only around 50,000 years ago that the Protheans were wiped out. Nice try, though. ;)
